The Kenedy Chamber of Commerce would like to thank everyone who attended the 92nd Annual Banquet. Congratulations to the following award recipients: Agriculture of the Year: Karnes County Livestock Auction, Business of the Year: Marathon Oil, Tourism of the Year: Kenedy 4B and Citizen of the Year: Carolyn McDonald. The catered barbecue dinner by Uncle Mutt’s was delicious and the music performed by Exit 505 Band was a great way to end the night. We have had such a successful year this year, being able to give away $17,250 in scholarships and $25,450 in donations. We would not have been able to do this without the support of our members and community. With that being said, we would like thank all of our supporters and we look forward to continuing to serve our community.
